PunkFest - "Be My Chick"

[Gritter]

After a second listen I have to stress that;

this is freaking incredible!

[Tony W]

Now that's the way to kick the door in and say "hey, I'm here!" Love it! That is some damn fine musicianship. Welcome aboard

[Kevin Mammoth]

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome, it is a real buzz to get a reaction. I was definitely aiming for a Ramones/Sex pistols feel when I did this little tune.  And thanks Gritter for introducing me to the Queen Haters, I don't know how they managed to pass me by for this long. Keep on rockin'!

Freaking Superb!

They were not an actual band. This is their only song. This is from SCTV, a Canadian comedy show. Though the comedians, Martin Short - vocals; Eugene Levy - lead guitar; Andrea Martin - rhythm guitar; Joe Flaherty - bass; John Candy - drums all really played and sung on it.

Oh, this is just class

Big smile on my face, puts me right back in the 6th Form Centre in 1979-80 (although I hated this sort of stuff at the time ).

And mebbe the solo is long for the punk-purist, but who cares? It rocks...

[IanR]

Man, that sure WAS PUNK.  No doubts here.  You captured the spirit and the sound perrrrrrfectly.  If there was one of them smiley symbols for a head butt, I'd have pasted a dozen onto these comments.

[Ted]

Solo too long?  Let's check the Punk Rule Book...

Mmmm... mmm... Page 132...  Okay....

Ah! Right here, it says, There is no bloody Punk Rule Book!

The song's a blast!  More please!

[Bluesberry]

Absol-f*ck8n-fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Welcome to the site, we are in for a real treat listening to your tunes.  I love that guitar solo, it is perfect, old rock and roll vibe like Chuck Berry, which is perfect for punk.  This is a thing of beauty.

I missed this one Kevin, so I'm glad to bump it. It's definitley punk, I love the chugging guitars and I think the solo is great, definitely not too over the top for punk. Sounds like a Buzzcocks solo to me with a bit of Steve Jones at the end. Some nice chord changes in there. Great sound, nice first post - what did you record it on?

Cheers,

Nigel
